CHRIS WOOD (Now at Royal London Yacht Club)

CHRIS WOOD (Now at Royal London Yacht Club)

Join us for an evening in the company of one of the very best contemporary song-writers. His acutely observed and beautifully arranged slices of domestic life are delivered quietly but with a sharp tongue, a compassionate eye and a musical dexterity that singles him out as a master of the form. Not to be missed.

In a world of soundbites and distractions Chris Wood is a truth seeker. His writing is permeated with love and wry intelligence, uplifting and challenging as he celebrates the sheer one-thing-after-anotherness of life. Tom Robinson and Chris Difford are fans while Stick In The Wheel and The Unthanks look to him as an influence. Winner of 6 BBC Folk Awards, he’s played with The Royal Shakespeare Company and was a key member of The Imagined Village along with Billy Bragg and Martin Carthy. A wise and soulful craftsman, his concerts are a cliche free zone.
“Chris Wood might be the Ken Loach of songwriting. Very political, but at the same time full of compassion, and he grows sharper and more acute with each passing album. He’s good, quite probably the very best we have today, and we need him more than ever.” – fRoots Magazine
